Herman Noll, at the chamber of commerce meeting in speaking of the merchants of this city closing up their business and going in a body on a booster excursion to San Diego, maintains that it would be a good move on their part.

The plant is almost a quarter of a century old, and the parent stalk is six inches in diameter. It has grown to such dimensions that it covers a trellis work twenty feet long and ten feet high. Its branches creep up the side of the house, and it is necessary to prune them to prevent them tearing the weather boarding off. At present it is in full bloom and presents the appearance of a huge bank of beautiful purple flowers. The wisteria cames from Japan, and while in that country a year ago Mr. and Mrs. Hartung took especial pains to examine the plant in it native soil, but found nothing equal to the one blooming in their own dooryard. California can reproduce anything that grows on earth and make an improvement on it. Pipe from the Standard oil well above Olive has been hauled through town during the week for the Standard territory near Buena Park, the Olive well having been abandoned at 3800 feet and the pipe withdrawn. Oil was struck, but not of sufficient quantities to justify pumping. The well was good for 100 barrels of heavy gravity oil. The well sunk by Standard on the Bixby ranch was also abandoned at 4100 feet. Oil was not discovered in paying quantities, and the well will probably be used by the ranch for irrigation, a fine body of water having been encountered. According to contract this well reverts to the Bixby ranch. It is said that both wells cost Standard in the neighborhood of $150,000. The company was engaged for a year and a half in putting down its pilot wells, and it is said the territory has been definitely abandoned. While Ben Ter Best was riding his bicycle into town, along West Center street, on Thursday afternoon, he collided with Mrs. C. A. Boege, who had just stopped off of the sidewalk and started to cross the street. Ter Best, not desiring to cross in front of the lady, turned his wheel to pass close in to the sidewalk. Mrs. Boege at this instant turned and seeing the man approaching, and evidently becoming confused, stepped in front of the wheel and was knocked down, falling heavily, stricking the back of her head on the cement pavement. Mrs. Boege was rendered unconscious and was hurriedly taken to her home nearby and physicians summoned. Mrs. Boege received severe cuts in the back of the head, caused partly by the breaking of a comb she wore, and was otherwise bruised. She is now fully recovered. Mr. Ter Best was violently thrown from the wheel to the pavement, sustaining injury to his right knee cap and his right hand was badly cut and bruised. Free delivery to any part of the city. Feed, fuel, seeds, and ice. H. H. Gardner Co., 114 N. Los Angeles St. Anaheim. Mrs. Herman Schindler gave a party Monday, the occasion being the birthday of her son, Roland. Twenty-five friends of the family were present and were entertained by the hostess. A luncheon was served at five o'clock. J. H. Latouette of 114 Thalia street is a breeder of pure bred Rhode Island red chickens, and in another column gives a list of his prices on eggs and chicks. This breed of fowl has become extremely popular because of their size, and laying qualities, and Mr. Latouette has a fine flock. A band of 14 Chinamen were smuggled into the United States in an oil tank car. It is stated by the immigration officials that the men were put inside the tank at Vancouver and were released near Everett, Wash. This must be a mighty attractive country to the Chinamen when they will try to gain admission in this manner, but it must be admitted that the way was well oiled for them. At a meeting of the Orange County Parent Teachers' association at Huntington Beach Saturday, Mrs. G. H. Goodale of this city was elected president.

Alvin Nowotny has taken the local agency for the Metropolitan Life Insurance company of New York. He is giving his entire time to that business, and is meeting with success in his new calling. O. W. Gregg died at his home on Crone avenue Sunday afternoon after a lingering illness. Funeral services were held at Backs & Terry's undertaking parlor Tuesday morning after which the body was shipped to Los Angeles for cremation. He was 56 years of age. While in town on other business Tuesday, county sealer of weights and measures, George McPhee, incidentally cast an eye over the berry boxes used by the dealers of fruit in Anaheim. Every city in Orange county has now adopted an ordinance fixing a uniform measure for fruit and Mr. McPhee declares his intention of seeing that they are obeyed. The net weight of raspberry and loganberry boxes fixed by these ordinances is 8 ounces, all other boxes, including strawberries, 12 ounces. The fact that growers slip over short-weight boxes onto the dealers will not be considered a valid excuse for selling them. The dealer is expected to make sure that his boxes are full weight before offering them for sale. In speaking of employing a paid secretary to act jointly in attending to the duties of the board of trade and merchants association, President F. C. Krause at the board of trade meeting Monday night, made many good points in favor of securing the services of a competent and experienced man, who possesses the faculty of luring the tenderfoot hither and then making him feel perfectly at home after he arrives. Mr. Krause told of his experience when he went to Seattle some years ago and took quarters at one of the leading hotels in that city. Within a few hours a salaried official of the chamber of commerce called upon him, after looking him up upon the hotel register, and ascertaining his former residence. Mr. Krause stated that he was informed that several gentlemen lived in the city who hailed from his former county, besides one from the same town, all of whom he knew personally. He later met these gentlemen again and everything being made so homelike for him in that city he de- Lima Seed Beans For sale, 2 1/2 miles south on Garden Grove road. Jas. Schwartzbach, Route 4, Box 29. Alleging that when C. E. Ruddock was sheriff an execution was not levied until one day too late to be valid, August H. Block has brought suit against Ruddock for $137.49. On October 2, 1914, the execution was issued out of the San Diego court in an action brought by G. R. Laybourn against Block. It is alleged that it was not used in the levy until December 3, and because it was not made use of withing sixty days after it was issued, Block alleges it was void, and for that reason Block alleges he is entitled to the amount taken by the levy. The city trustees held an extra session Tuesday evening for the/purpose of considering the purchase of a pump for the municipal water plant. Eight bids were on file but as they were all considered excessive it was determined to reject them all and buy a pump in the open market. The removal of telephone poles in the ornamental light zone was also discussed. The Pacific company is asking permission to increase rates sufficient to offset cost of removal, but this was denied and City Attorney Ames instructed to take initial steps toward having the poles removed by process of law. Workmen are now engaged in cutting eight feet off the front of the Odd Fellows building and adding a third story to it. Judge J. S. Howard and family and Mr. and Mrs. Del Launders spent Sunday at the county park. The Florsheim Shoe For the Man The Florsheim Shoe For the Man Who Cares.
